    I tried both but the 1st one couldent complete the steps didnt have the file you mentioned and 2nd was all successful but the password didnt appear, just the pin...

    I'd suggest redoing step 1. It's possible you used an incorrect drive letter. Run bcdedit to find the OS drive-letter. And then rename utilman.exe to cmd.exe in that drive.

    Using your camera/mobile, take a photo of the output window for each command and share it on imgur.com.

    And massage appears when I try to set up a pin.. sometimes when set up a pin, it says you need to search in the store but it doesn't open and this message appears.

    Again, it's possible that you used an incorrect drive letter. Without the screenshots, I have no way to verify if the steps worked.

    Which method did you try, and when does the error message occur -- e.g.., after logging in?

    Still same now it's saying, the system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in the app.

    Please try one of the following methods.

    1. Use the Utilman.exe method to reverse the changes you made using MSCONFIG.

    Diagnostic Mode "Something happened and your PIN isn't - Microsoft Community

    -or-

    1. If you remember the MSA password, enable the password sign-in option using an offline registry edit. Error “Something happened and your PIN isn’t available” in Diagnostic Startup
